The code has integrity checks to make sure that depth never goes below
zero. But the depth field has recently been converted to unsigned long
from "int" (for alignment reasons). As unsigned long can never be less
than zero, the integrity checks no longer work.
Convert depth to long from unsigned long to allow the integrity checks to
work again.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Extend tracing option mask to 64 bits
The trace options were defined by a 32 bit variable. This limits the
tracing instances to have a total of 32 different options. As that
limit has been hit, and more options are being added, increase the
option mask to a 64 bit number, doubling the number of options
available.
As this is required for the kprobe topic branches as well as the
tracing topic branch, a separate branch was created and merged into
both.
- Make trace_user_fault_read() available for the rest of tracing
The function trace_user_fault_read() is used by trace_marker file
read to allow reading user space to be done fast and without locking
or allocations. Make this available so that the system call trace
events can use it too.
- Have system call trace events read user space values
Now that the system call trace events callbacks are called in a
faultable context, take advantage of this and read the user space
buffers for various system calls. For example, show the path name of
the openat system call instead of just showing the pointer to that
path name in user space. Also show the contents of the buffer of the
write system call. Several system call trace events are updated to
make tracing into a light weight strace tool for all applications in
the system.
- Update perf system call tracing to do the same
- And a config and syscall_user_buf_size file to control the size of
the buffer
Limit the amount of data that can be read from user space. The
default size is 63 bytes but that can be expanded to 165 bytes.
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to print system calls normally
The persistent ring buffer prints trace events by their type and
ignores the print_fmt. This is because the print_fmt may change from
kernel to kernel. As the system call output is fixed by the system
call ABI itself, there's no reason to limit that. This makes reading
the system call events in the persistent ring buffer much nicer and
easier to understand.
- Add options to show text offset to function profiler
The function profiler that counts the number of times a function is
hit currently lists all functions by its name and offset. But this
becomes ambiguous when there are several functions with the same
name.
Add a tracing option that changes the output to be that of
'_text+offset' instead. Now a user space tool can use this
information to map the '_text+offset' to the unique function it is
counting.
- Report bad dynamic event command
If a bad command is passed to the dynamic_events file, report it
properly in the error log.
- Clean up tracer options
Clean up the tracer option code a bit, by removing some useless code
and also using switch statements instead of a series of if
statements.
- Have tracing options be instance specific
Tracers can have their own options (function tracer, irqsoff tracer,
function graph tracer, etc). But now that the same tracer can be
enabled in multiple trace instances, their options are still global.
The API is per instance, thus changing one affects other instances.
This isn't even consistent, as the option take affect differently
depending on when an tracer started in an instance. Make the options
for instances only affect the instance it is changed under.
- Optimize pid_list lock contention
Whenever the pid_list is read, it uses a spin lock. This happens at
every sched switch. Taking the lock at sched switch can be removed by
instead using a seqlock counter.
- Clean up the trace trigger structures
The trigger code uses two different structures to implement a single
tigger. This was due to trying to reuse code for the two different
types of triggers (always on trigger, and count limited trigger). But
by adding a single field to one structure, the other structure could
be absorbed into the first structure making he code easier to
understand.
- Create a bulk garbage collector for trace triggers
If user space has triggers for several hundreds of events and then
removes them, it can take several seconds to complete. This is
because each removal calls tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() that
can take hundreds of milliseconds to complete.
Instead, create a helper thread that will do the clean up. When a
trigger is removed, it will create the kthread if it isn't already
created, and then add the trigger to a llist. The kthread will take
the items off the llist, call tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(),
and then remove the items it took off. It will then check if there's
more items to free before sleeping.
This makes user space removing all these triggers to finish in less
than a second.
- Allow function tracing of some of the tracing infrastructure code
Because the tracing code can cause recursion issues if it is traced
by the function tracer the entire tracing directory disables function
tracing. But not all of tracing causes issues if it is traced.
Namely, the event tracing code. Add a config that enables some of the
tracing code to be traced to help in debugging it. Note, when this is
enabled, it does add noise to general function tracing, especially if
events are enabled as well (which is a common case).
- Add boot-time backup instance for persistent buffer
The persistent ring buffer is used mostly for kernel crash analysis
in the field. One issue is that if there's a crash, the data in the
persistent ring buffer must be read before tracing can begin using
it. This slows down the boot process. Once tracing starts in the
persistent ring buffer, the old data must be freed and the addresses
no longer match and old events can't be in the buffer with new
events.
Create a way to create a backup buffer that copies the persistent
ring buffer at boot up. Then after a crash, the always on tracer can
begin immediately as well as the normal boot process while the crash
analysis tooling uses the backup buffer. After the backup buffer is
finished being read, it can be removed.
- Enable function graph args and return address options at the same
time
Currently the when reading of arguments in the function graph tracer
is enabled, the option to record the parent function in the entry
event can not be enabled. Update the code so that it can.
- Add new struct_offset() helper macro
Add a new macro that takes a pointer to a structure and a name of one
of its members and it will return the offset of that member. This
allows the ring buffer code to simplify the following:
From: size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
To: size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
There should be other simplifications that this macro can help out
with as well

simultaneously
Currently, the funcgraph-args and funcgraph-retaddr features are
mutually exclusive. This patch resolves this limitation by allowing
funcgraph-retaddr to have an args array.
To verify the change, use perf to trace vfs_write with both options
enabled:
Before:
# perf ftrace -G vfs_write --graph-opts args,retaddr
......
down_read() { /* <-n_tty_write+0xa3/0x540 */
__cond_resched(); /* <-down_read+0x12/0x160 */
preempt_count_add(); /* <-down_read+0x3b/0x160 */
preempt_count_sub(); /* <-down_read+0x8b/0x160 */
}
After:
# perf ftrace -G vfs_write --graph-opts args,retaddr
......
down_read(sem=0xffff8880100bea78) { /* <-n_tty_write+0xa3/0x540 */

For now, the "nop" will be replaced with a "call" instruction when a
function is hooked by the ftrace. However, sometimes the "call" can break
the RSB and introduce extra overhead. Therefore, introduce the flag
FTRACE_OPS_FL_JMP, which indicate that the ftrace_ops should be called
with a "jmp" instead of "call". For now, it is only used by the direct
call case.
When a direct ftrace_ops is marked with FTRACE_OPS_FL_JMP, the last bit of
the ops->direct_call will be set to 1. Therefore, we can tell if we should
use "jmp" for the callback in ftrace_call_replace().

Currently we don't get stack trace via ORC unwinder on top of fgraph exit
handler. We can see that when generating stacktrace from kretprobe_multi
bpf program which is based on fprobe/fgraph.
The reason is that the ORC unwind code won't get pass the return_to_handler
callback installed by fgraph return probe machinery.
Solving this by creating stack frame in return_to_handler expected by
ftrace_graph_ret_addr function to recover original return address and
continue with the unwind.
Also updating the pt_regs data with cs/flags/rsp which are needed for
successful stack retrieval from ebpf bpf_get_stackid helper.
- in get_perf_callchain we check user_mode(regs) so CS has to be set
- in perf_callchain_kernel we call perf_hw_regs(regs), so EFLAGS/FIXED
has to be unset

Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it
requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when
a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all
architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are
added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other
architectures can still function until they too have been updated.
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant
with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where
applicable.

The following ftrace patch for riscv uses a data store to update ftrace
function. Therefore, a romote fence is required to order it against
function_trace_op updates. The mechanism is similar to the fence between
function_trace_op and update_ftrace_func in the generic ftrace, so we
leverage the same ftrace_sync_ipi function.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Have module addresses get updated in the persistent ring buffer
The addresses of the modules from the previous boot are saved in the
persistent ring buffer. If the same modules are loaded and an address
is in the old buffer points to an address that was both saved in the
persistent ring buffer and is loaded in memory, shift the address to
point to the address that is loaded in memory in the trace event.
- Print function names for irqs off and preempt off callsites
When ignoring the print fmt of a trace event and just printing the
fields directly, have the fields for preempt off and irqs off events
still show the function name (via kallsyms) instead of just showing
the raw address.
- Clean ups of the histogram code
The histogram functions saved over 800 bytes on the stack to process
events as they come in. Instead, create per-cpu buffers that can hold
this information and have a separate location for each context level
(thread, softirq, IRQ and NMI).
Also add some more comments to the code.
- Add "common_comm" field for histograms
Add "common_comm" that uses the current->comm as a field in an event
histogram and acts like any of the other fields of the event.
- Show "subops" in the enabled_functions file
When the function graph infrastructure is used, a subsystem has a
"subops" that it attaches its callback function to. Instead of the
enabled_functions just showing a function calling the function that
calls the subops functions, also show the subops functions that will
get called for that function too.
- Add "copy_trace_marker" option to instances
There are cases where an instance is created for tooling to write
into, but the old tooling has the top level instance hardcoded into
the application. New tools want to consume the data from an instance
and not the top level buffer. By adding a copy_trace_marker option,
whenever the top instance trace_marker is written into, a copy of it
is also written into the instance with this option set. This allows
new tools to read what old tools are writing into the top buffer.
If this option is cleared by the top instance, then what is written
into the trace_marker is not written into the top instance. This is a
way to redirect the trace_marker writes into another instance.
- Have tracepoints created by DECLARE_TRACE() use trace_<name>_tp()
If a tracepoint is created by DECLARE_TRACE() instead of
TRACE_EVENT(), then it will not be exposed via tracefs. Currently
there's no way to differentiate in the kernel the tracepoint
functions between those that are exposed via tracefs or not. A
calling convention has been made manually to append a "_tp" prefix
for events created by DECLARE_TRACE(). Instead of doing this
manually, force it so that all DECLARE_TRACE() events have this
notation.
- Use __string() for task->comm in some sched events
Instead of hardcoding the comm to be TASK_COMM_LEN in some of the
scheduler events use __string() which makes it dynamic. Note, if
these events are parsed by user space it they may break, and the
event may have to be converted back to the hardcoded size.
- Have function graph "depth" be unsigned to the user
Internally to the kernel, the "depth" field of the function graph
event is signed due to -1 being used for end of boundary. What
actually gets recorded in the event itself is zero or positive.
Reflect this to user space by showing "depth" as unsigned int and be
consistent across all events.
- Allow an arbitrary long CPU string to osnoise_cpus_write()
The filtering of which CPUs to write to can exceed 256 bytes. If a
machine has 256 CPUs, and the filter is to filter every other CPU,
the write would take a string larger than 256 bytes. Instead of using
a fixed size buffer on the stack that is 256 bytes, allocate it to
handle what is passed in.
- Stop having ftrace check the per-cpu data "disabled" flag
The "disabled" flag in the data structure passed to most ftrace
functions is checked to know if tracing has been disabled or not.
This flag was added back in 2008 before the ring buffer had its own
way to disable tracing. The "disable" flag is now not always set when
needed, and the ring buffer flag should be used in all locations
where the disabled is needed. Since the "disable" flag is redundant
and incorrect, stop using it. Fix up some locations that use the
"disable" flag to use the ring buffer info.
- Use a new tracer_tracing_disable/enable() instead of data->disable
flag
There's a few cases that set the data->disable flag to stop tracing,
but this flag is not consistently used. It is also an on/off switch
where if a function set it and calls another function that sets it,
the called function may incorrectly enable it.
Use a new trace_tracing_disable() and tracer_tracing_enable() that
uses a counter and can be nested. These use the ring buffer flags
which are always checked making the disabling more consistent.
- Save the trace clock in the persistent ring buffer
Save what clock was used for tracing in the persistent ring buffer
and set it back to that clock after a reboot.
- Remove unused reference to a per CPU data pointer in mmiotrace
functions
- Remove unused buffer_page field from trace_array_cpu structure
- Remove more strncpy() instances
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

The function graph infrastructure is now generic so that kretprobes,
fprobes and BPF can use it. But there is still some leftover logic that
only the function graph tracer itself uses. This is the calculation of the
calltime and return time of the functions. The calculation of the calltime
has been moved into the function graph tracer and those users that need it
so that it doesn't cause overhead to the other users. But the return
function timestamp was still called.
Instead of just moving the taking of the timestamp into the function graph
trace remove the calltime and rettime completely from the ftrace_graph_ret
structure. Instead, move it into the function graph return entry event
structure and this also moves all the calltime and rettime logic out of
the generic fgraph.c code and into the tracing code that uses it.
This has been reported to decrease the overhead by ~27%.

perf_fetch_caller_regs(). In other words, the pt_regs returned from the
ftrace_fill_perf_regs() must satisfy 'user_mode(regs) == false' and can be
used for stack tracing.

Add ftrace_partial_regs() which converts the ftrace_regs to pt_regs.
This is for the eBPF which needs this to keep the same pt_regs interface
to access registers.
Thus when replacing the pt_regs with ftrace_regs in fprobes (which is
used by kprobe_multi eBPF event), this will be used.
If the architecture defines its own ftrace_regs, this copies partial
registers to pt_regs and returns it. If not, ftrace_regs is the same as
pt_regs and ftrace_partial_regs() will return ftrace_regs::regs.

Change the fprobe exit handler to use ftrace_regs structure instead of
pt_regs. This also introduce HAVE_FTRACE_REGS_HAVING_PT_REGS which
means the ftrace_regs is including the pt_regs so that ftrace_regs
can provide pt_regs without memory allocation.
Fprobe introduces a new dependency with that.

available, it passes a NULL instead. User callback function can access
some registers (including return address) via this ftrace_regs.
Note that the ftrace_regs can be NULL when the arch does NOT define:
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS or HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS.
More specifically, if HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS is defined but
not the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, and the ftrace ops used to
register the function callback does not set FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS.
In this case, ftrace_regs can be NULL in user callback.

Most architectures use pt_regs within ftrace_regs making a lot of the
accessor functions just calls to the pt_regs internally. Instead of
duplication this effort, use a HAVE_ARCH_FTRACE_REGS for architectures
that have their own ftrace_regs that is not based on pt_regs and will
define all the accessor functions, and for the architectures that just use
pt_regs, it will leave it undefined, and the default accessor functions
will be used.
Note, this will also make it easier to add new accessor functions to
ftrace_regs as it will mean having to touch less architectures.

ftrace_regs was created to hold registers that store information to save
function parameters, return value and stack. Since it is a subset of
pt_regs, it should only be used by its accessor functions. But because
pt_regs can easily be taken from ftrace_regs (on most archs), it is
tempting to use it directly. But when running on other architectures, it
may fail to build or worse, build but crash the kernel!
Instead, make struct ftrace_regs an empty structure and have the
architectures define __arch_ftrace_regs and all the accessor functions
will typecast to it to get to the actual fields. This will help avoid
usage of ftrace_regs directly.

Simplify return address printing in the function graph tracer by removing
fgraph_extras. Since this feature is only used by the function graph
tracer and the feature flags can directly accessible from the function
graph tracer, fgraph_extras can be removed from the fgraph callback.

When using function_graph tracer to analyze the flow of kernel function
execution, it is often necessary to quickly locate the exact line of code
where the call occurs. While this may be easy at times, it can be more
time-consuming when some functions are inlined or the flow is too long.
This feature aims to simplify the process by recording the return address
of traced funcions and printing it when outputing trace logs.
To enhance human readability, the prefix 'ret=' is used for the kernel return
value, while '<-' serves as the prefix for the return address in trace logs to
make it look more like the function tracer.
A new trace option named 'funcgraph-retaddr' has been introduced, and the
existing option 'sym-addr' can be used to control the format of the return
address.
See below logs with both funcgraph-retval and funcgraph-retaddr enabled.

The calltime field in the shadow stack frame is only used by the function
graph tracer and profiler. But now that there's other users of the function
graph infrastructure, this adds overhead and wastes space on the shadow
stack. Move the calltime to the fgraph data storage, where the function
graph and profiler entry functions will save it in its own graph storage and
retrieve it in its exit functions.

Instead of having the "subtime" for the function profiler in the
